[@SharonMatthews-h3w]

He s The King. No one even today can touch his voice , looks or stage presence

[@DawnSuttonfabfour]

1968 Elvis, the most beautiful man on the planet.

[@theresaterry164]

This is the one and ONLY King of rock and roll! ❤ So much talent…. What a great voice! There will never be another!

[@sharonvincent4238]

His was just natural talent.

[@ronaldroehrick4872]

Elvis had it all, great voice, great looks so much raw talent and sexuality and he gave 100% all the time, a once in a lifetime talent. Thats why he is the king of Rock and Roll.

[@stempo1]

This is the example of a candle burning so bright everyone in the room gets a tan, Elvis was on a level beyond everything else.

[@anastasiabeaverhausen2647]

Great comment

[@eorozco2720]

That is definitely a great comment.

[@lindawhite5006]

I LOVE his MASCULINITY!

[@TheKopyKatz]

11 out of 10 all day long.

[@MigdaliaTomalinas-os2nz]

I love this Elvis song. It shows his range and emotional expressions on his face. Elvis is a 10 no matter what he song. Disappointed in your Elvis ratings. There is no performer today that has that voice. His true fans love him for ever. Migdalia

[@christopherone1]

he's just so iconic, as you stated...it's like he's not even real...a real person...but oh he was....such a legend. So loved.

[@monawenger932]

If I Could Dream. Really. Anything Elvis.

[@mariamontaniahelgakissling9964]

8,9 Are you kidding? Elvis Is perfection Here.

[@anastasiabeaverhausen2647]

I think they held back bc he makes them a bit confused. They need to admit he's the sexiest beast to walk God's green earth. 😆 They rated low, but watch them-- they were enthralled!

[@nitalopes515]

Magnificent Magnificent Magnificent ❤❤❤

[@Gazsu7]

Come on fellas... you can say it ... Elvis is one sexy beast.

[@anastasiabeaverhausen2647]

Bwahahaha! Yes!!! You said that right!!!

[@debbiegeorge2014]

He had it all!!! Love him!❤️❤️

[@Ken-dh2te]

The KING....No one before or in the future can be anywhere close to Elvis.

[@lindawhite5006]

ELVIS WILL ALWAYS BE THE KING!

[@chueysmama2622]

I will always watch The King! Now you know this one, and it's a good one! 🐾🐾 🐾🐾 If anyone gets that ol time machine going, send me back to when they filmed this please............ 🤤 Just land me in his dressing room, I'll remember what to do, I hope.......

[@jenniezamek2849]

F I R E !

[@sandraadams6204]

No doubt--he's the King.

[@marenehanson5526]

Oh God I love him. Still listen everyday. ❤️❤️

[@ericanderson8886]

The beauty of that special, just Elvis with some buddies in a circle playing and having fun.

[@markanderson7833]

Coolness personified.

[@shirleybuffington6420]

The reason he was sitting down was because they told him he could not do all his moves he normally did and in order to keep from doing that he sat down

[@rosedavis8267]

I love the way you react to Elvis Presley. He 8s indeed the best singer, good looking, generous heart, etc. I want to order your Elvis T-shirt. He looks great 👍

[@BritPopsReact]

@rose davis Thank you for the comment Rose, we have been doing quite a few Elvis reactions and really enjoying them. Thank you for the comment and for checking out our channel too

[@delilahmorrow4606]

Love all Elvis from beginnings to his end.

[@cindypabon4409]

This song is my favorite song by the King. That leather suit fits him like a glove.

[@theapavlou3030]

Seriously his finest hour. Elvis was born to wear that suit ❤

[@davidharrison1523]

Elvis had a meteoric rise in stardom when he was 19 in 1954. He quickly became a world superstar, & then was suddenly drafted into the army & packed off to post-war Germany for two years. He recorded some songs on his return but then was the highest paid actor in Hollywood for the next 9 years, until his contract finished & he made the decision to return to live performances, which had always been his first love. So in 1968, he did a televised Comeback Special, which this song is out of. He was very nervous as it had been 11 years in total since he had performed live on stage, but he very quickly re-established himself as a world superstar, with all concerts sold out within hours, & it was like that right up until his death, though the last two years of his life, as his health continued to rapidly decline, performing became a big struggle for him & sometimes concerts had to be canceled as he was in hospital or too sick to perform.

[@phantomrockerr]

The King!

[@bluebuddy46422]

Elvis always took a song and put his own spin on it, making it much better than the original. Elvis just had that sprinkling of magic in his voice and his interpretation was always much more emotional that it touched your soul.Legend

[@shjssjjs7015]

اعظم فنان على مر العصور لم ولن يتكرر الملك بدون منازع

[@TCB1958]

More like 10 out of 10

[@lange6542]

This men was soooo good. The best ever i mean it. Thank God for ELVIS 🙏👑 Gr from Amsterdam

[@jennyjorgensen9935]

Elvis a 10 every time.💖🔥💖🔥💖🔥

[@janetbentsen1829]

After 8 years making movies Elvis wasn't sure he still had a following for live performances. Boy was he wrong. This lead to his residency in Vegas. Elvis was the whole package, the looks, the talent and charisma. Only Elvis ❤ Good reaction.

[@vickik9104]

The King. You can tell how he got his title.

[@firefighterchick]

As you guys put it Elvis was just Elvis and there is no comparison. So much of today's music draws inspiration from what Elvis created. He seemed to have a great sense of humor and obviously was quite the charmer.

[@SweeranSwift]

The Goat

[@lordlockdown64]

He had it all.

[@RJ-oy7cq]

BP1 mate! Elvis gives a really outstanding performance and you don't even give it a 9! At least a 9 at lowest--actually has an argument for a 10. I think if BP2 graded first he'd be near a 10.

[@erlindamartinez8521]

The KING. Love your reaction. More please 💕💕💕💕

[@jayeginn5963]

Elvis Aaron Presley (Jan. 8, 1935-Aug. 16, 1977). Elvis was born on January 8, 1935 in Tupelo, Mississippi, in a 2 room shack of a house his dad built with money he borrowed from his boss. That's how dirt poor they were. He was one half of identical twins; the other boy - Jesse Garon - was stillborn. They were so poor, that Jesse Garon was buried in a shoebox in an unmarked grave. At Graceland they have a plaque with his name on it in his memory. Elvis always got along with the black community and learned a lot about music from his friends of color. Also, according to the one drop rule, Elvis would not be considered white, since he has Cherokee ancestors on both the Smith (his mother) and the Presley (his father) sides of the family. His paternal grandfather, Jesse Dunning Presley, was not happy that his two sons, Elvis' father Vernon and his brother Vester, married two sisters, Gladys and Clettes who were known to have Cherokee blood in their family tree. J.D. Presley was quite the racist a-hole, often drunk and a philandering husband to Minnie Mae (they were actually separated long before they finally divorced in 1954) who was always competing with his sons Vester and Vernon and who was known to abuse his kids when drunk. J.D. was was publicly against race mixing and was in denial about the Cherokee blood in his own family tree. It was more publicly known that the Smith family had Native blood in their family tree, so when both his sons fell for 2 Smith sisters and Vernon, on top of that, was still a minor at 17 when he eloped with Gladys who was 4 years older than him, Jesse was totally pissed off. As a child, Elvis already had many friends in the black community at the time his family was one of 4 "white" families that lived in the predominantly black neighborhood The Hill, just across from Shake Rag. His childhood friend Sam Bell said that some of the (black) kids in that neighborhood had lighter skin than Elvis (kzbin.info/www/bejne/gqOpdKyEgtuNjc0). One of Elvis' bodyguards once said that he thought it was a miracle Elvis got into Humes High School in Memphis, because it was "lily white". Elvis wanted to be more open about his Native ancestry, but his manager "colonel" Tom Parker (real name Andreas van Kuijk) was against it because he was afraid it might cost Elvis fans (and himself money). They did have Elvis play characters in his movies though where he had Native American blood (Flaming Star, G.I. Blues, Stay Away Joe). Once Elvis had his own (apprentice) job learning to be an electrician, he saved up his money and bought his clothes in the same style that many of his friends of color wore. He was called a (forgive me, just stating facts here) "n-lover" and got beaten up several times too. Later, when he was an established star, he would not perform at places where the members of color of his back-up band/orchestra weren't allowed.

[@shirleycarr5387]

What a performer, I can watch Elvis all the time.he had the whole package.

[@ingridszczypkova3294]

that´s the right word "brilliant" 👌👌

[@ppresley9208]

Love it when Elvis wails ... especially in his black leather ... playing his guitar ! TCB forever !

[@darylheasman1]

Heartbreak Hotel was not far off 70 years ago when it was released. And this man is still revered and loved and missed. Taken from this world far far to soon. I wonder how many stars of today will be missed in 70yrs time as much as Elvis is. RIP

[@amandarayray9340]

Elvis is music. He was so one with the music, like no one or nothing I've ever seen before.

[@destinyreelly2974]

Some people just get a little bit of extra cosmic juice than the rest of us. He was infinitely blessed and will basically live forever. 👊🏼❤️

[@psidvicious]

I’m not sure younger people really get why Elvis is remembered the way he is, but I’m confident that as they get older, [hopefully] the light will switch on and they will think, “Ohhh, I get it now! 👑

[@lechat8533]

Thank you, both! I`m so happy to hear non-Elvis fans say positive things about him :))) I`ve been an Elvis fan for decades, and he just doesn`t cease to amaze me with his voice, songs, and passion. I love all kinds of music and musicians, but Elvis will always be my No.1, and my lifelong love.

[@johne.7494]

Good old boy from tupelo Mississippi.

[@patfisher3234]

no autotune here lads just sheer talent

[@Judy0910]

I was 17 when this was on TV. It was so exciting, and I remember how I felt today and I am 72 now. Wish that I could go back ❤.

[@idalily3810]

It was a stroke of genius for the producers to put him in a chair. The sexual tension of Elvis restraining himself is hot, hot, hot. And all the women know it.

[@kerrypapworth1526]

Wow he was amazing, that voice, his insanely gorgeous looks and charisma - unbelievable. 💕

[@catherinjenen5510]

Great reaction. Elvis cannot be matched by anyone. Please continue to react to more Elvis

[@DarcyIzziStewart]

Elvis was a beautiful man. No doubt about it.

[@michellejackson6679]

Ya'll r young... I just saw a thing a FB today.. who's the king or Prince of Pop... MJ or Prince... I truly don't care.. I loved Prince and I loved Michael.. but hands down Elvis was the King,, and I'm a hair band era girl.. give me some Bon Jovi, Journey, .... but I do and always will love Elvis

[@jobydogwhisperer4163]

I love your reaction of Brillant!!! He was that and more.

[@thesaltnation5570]

This is a very underrated song one of my favs ❤

[@BettyWright-y9c]

Just say it guys--- He's downright sexy. I'm a seventy eight year old great grandma and he still gives me goose bumps.

[@anjoleeeickhoff6800]

Elvis was also a talented pianist, he was talented in every way in my opinion.❤

[@wallflowerj6013]

“Love me tender” 1970 pleeeeaaase 🙏❤️

[@thecottagemouse2713]

Great reaction. Elvis is the only male singer I know that can make men blush Any man He is a giant talent that was really never given the recognition for his vocal ability. So happy channels like yours are showing the world his true talent. His looks are Breathtaking as well Keep cool over there guys. My friend said it was a scorcher your side of the pond. Cheers

[@wallflowerj6013]

Thank you for the Elvis!!! Love it!!

[@plumup]

I've come back here to watch this with you guys a few times. I wish I could give it another thumbs up each time!

[@BritPopsReact]

Thanks Plumup.. quality

[@deboisblanc]

Elvis is tearing up that guitar, Scottie probably wanted it back! The first Unplugged concert

[@eorozco2720]

I’m not totally sure I agree with your score but then again, I am a big Elvis fan No words to say about him that describes him. He’s uncomparable and he has a beautiful heart. He helped so many and has the best voice that there ever was.

[@kathifielder1110]

I enjoyed your reaction! Elvis originally recorded this song in 1956 if you'd like to give that version a listen. Here's a fun one: at the beginning of the video Elvis announces "Please Release Me" as the next song. The piano player, however, plays the intro to "I Can't Stop Loving You". Elvis goes right into it, but if you watch closely you'll see him throw a glass of water on the piano player. ELVIS PRESLEY - I Can't Stop Loving You (1972) 4K (2:26).

[@michaellawliss3049]

JUST NOT FAIR TO BE THAT GIFTED. 😂 ALWAYS AMAZING MATES! 🍻

Thanks Michael

Great reaction as usual!!Your facial expressions cracked me up… A couple different songs you’ll like ** 1958 ( Elvis Presley and Kitty White- Crawfish 2:30) from one of his best movies-King Creole ** Please check out his first love Gospel ( Peace In The Valley 1:37 ) younger Elvis on the Ed Sullivan show- his control of his voice up and down with notes is mind blowing 🎶 ** Gospel song 1972 live ( How Great Thou Art 2:52 ) light blue outfit WHO ELSE CAN PUT A GOSPEL SONG IN THE MIDDLE OF A CONCERT…NO ONE ONLY ELVIS CAN!! 👑 ** 1970 live In Las Vegas ( Bridge Over Troubled Water 4:10 ), ( You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling 4:01 ), ( Love Me Tender 4:36 ) kissing all the girls 🥰 Elvis loved his fans and we loved him the girls wanted him and the men wanted to be him just sit back and enjoy this one 🤣💋😂💋 ** A Tribute to daughter Lisa Marie and Elvis their duet of ( Where No One Stands Alone 3:41 ) she looks so much like her daddy and now their together again Rip Elvis 😇🕊️ Rip Lisa Marie 😇🕊️

[@sherylmcclure400]

Elvis handsome ,sexy and that voice ,wow

[@marionthompson3365]

Mr Cool! Love him!

[@carolhayar3037]

The most amazing & emotional voice, so here's a bit of info on his health: he inherited the genetic ailment A-1 antitrypsin which causes COPD/emphysema + possible liver damage & at some point in his life he began needing the use of an inhaler to help him breathe. It was on this '68 special sit-down segment for "Heartbreak Hotel" when he touched his throat & said hold it, i'm out of breath, wait a minute, but Elvis being Elvis he just laughed & continued on; he also coughed a few times during that song. He also had painful glaucoma & the mega bright house lights & stage lights at his concerts were hard on his eyes; in the mid-70's he had emergency in-office eye surgery. I don't think anyone w-his illness would be able to do what he did to the very end. Thank you.

[@jjbud3124]

In one of his concerts that I went to, he had the spotlight turned off, I'm certain it was due to eye pain from glaucoma. During his later year concerts he hardly ever opened his eyes while singing. Also during those last years his shortness of breath became noticeable. I don't know how he managed to some some of the greatest songs of his career while having breathing trouble. I think that segment of Heartbreak Hotel wasn't so much due to actual shortness of breath. That was his first song for that show and he was extremely nervous. I think his throat closed up on him from nerves. He had to be persuaded to even come out because he was a nervous wreck. Once Elvis got started he relaxed and started having fun.

[@carolhayar3037]

​@@jjbud3124 I do know that on the '68 special he was so nervous that he told producer-director Steve Binder he wasn't going out & Binder said I don't care if you walk out & just say hello & walk off, but you are going out. If you pay close attention to his little cough on Heartbreak Hotel, it's obvious it was his lungs. The condition was from his Mother's side. Of course he would joke about it & comment the leather suit was hot, which is so Elvis, but it was more than that. In Greensboro, NC 1972 before doing “Funny How Time Slips Away," he asked for the house lights to be turned up & he said a few words to the audience (a great moment!). Those lights are literally blinding. I too to don't know how he managed either -- i guess w-the pills for pain & an inhaler he was able to make it through.

[@lahnonname8969]

Its Elvis not Alvis. This performance gives me tingles clear to the top of my head.

[@christielysdale1815]

I thought we were gonna get a 9.5 at least 😂

[@t.m.5969]

Raw is the right word for this one Hot Damn Elvis brought me back to life with this preformance a few months ago, I was just getting over a very rough patch with depression that really took its toll the last two years and I've been doing so much better, so much better but just exhausted emotionally and mentally kinda just going through life but not really feeling, so when I first saw this it jumpstarted my heart again and brought me back to life more thsnnive felt in the last two years seeing this got me to subscribe love it! Keep going with Elvis you won't b disappointed ❤

[@BritPopsReact]

Glad to hear your heading in the right direction, always remember they are clouds in the way of the sun, the sun is always there and there is always a clear sky above the clouds ⛅️:) thanks for watching and coming on for the journey

[@firefighterchick]

I'm so glad that you are doing so much better. Always remember you mean everything to those that love you. The world is a better place with you in it. Much love ❤️

[@julialesleysheppard]

Elvis sings songs with his heart and soul and even in a recording he makes you feel like he’s singing to you as an individual. His music lifts you up and energises. So glad you’ve found strength from him. He once said if his music could help just one person, he’d be happy! 🙏👌🕺💕

[@julialesleysheppard]

Glad to see that Elvis is getting under your skin. Do look at his gospel music, for which he won his Grammies. Do listen to his rendition of “You’ll never walk alone” and hear it in another form to the Liverpool FC anthem!! 👌🕺💕

[@t.m.5969]

@@julialesleysheppard I love all of his Gospel music, I grew up listening to him and watching his movies my sister was an Elvis nut I loved him too but It wasn't until a few months ago that I stsrted lustenungbto him agsin really started to listen and see, hear and feel his heart and soul in his songs I can tell you I'm head over heels in love and I've started to listen to Elvis with new ears again this man's songs changed my life recently amd thry continue to lift me up.

[@inescece4707]

Guys I look for your elvis videos everyday waiting for you to do this one! Epic performance by our king !thank you for posting this great song !❤

[@TAnucci]

This gorgeous specimen of a huge talent absolutely feels EVERY song he sings. Thanks guys for a fun reaction! Loved it!

[@singluna888]

This is an awesome video. I remember seeing it live as a child.

[@JamesJohnson-ig6of]

Just want to say a hello to both of you, as I enjoy your ELVIS reactions! You might enjoy a video about ELVIS in his early days and the firestorm he lit off here in America. It's a 2-Part documentary "Elvis Presley and The Black Community, That Echo Will Never Die". I love how though we're continents apart, we can share and enjoy the same things in common! You guys have another new Subscriber! THANK YOU!

[@RobertNorthrop]

What a fun and enjoyable reaction - thanks gents! I love the sit-down portion of the 68 Comeback special. It's completely unrehearsed and raw and still sounds so good. They've reunited two of the three band members who played with Elvis during the 50s, guitarist Scotty Moore and drummer DJ Fontana (Bassist Bill Black had died in 1965). I highly recommend "Ready Teddy" from 1956, live on the Ed Sullivan show.

[@gorse9030]

I am an avid fan for decades but don't consider myself a nut but after a great reaction, and I know it is for fun, but I fully expected at least a 9 for an absolutely classic performance. 😊😊

[@BritPopsReact]

@Gorse Hi Gorse and thank you for the nice comment. The scores really are for fun and don't forget, we have no idea what we are doing. Come back soon

[@johnwingate8799]

Must be a Tom Jones fan.

[@LeighPC79]

Love this performance, and love your SRV shirt!

[@ELIZABETHANNEBuonagura]

Try some of his gospel - it is just wonderful. ( How great thou art is a personal favorite )

[@rawschri]

Half way through this set, he'd borrowed Scotty Moore's guitar which is the one he's playing here ... The last I knew, the guitar, a 1964 Gibson 400 CES, was owned by the Hard Rock Cafe Group, and had been on display in their Memphis Restaurant, on Beale Street

[@cindyphifer970]

My man Elvis always the best. You should check out his live performance on The Ed Sullivan Show

[@BritPopsReact]

@Cindy Phifer Hi Cindy, thanks for the recommendation, we will have a look for it. All the best

[@marithesabad5612]

raw power...nobody doesit better...

[@jaredhowe2847]

Trying to get to you was a release single for Elvis at Sun Records in 1955.

[@deborahcornell171]

I agree with others, "Bridge Over Troubled Water" 1970 in Vegas is a must. It's serious, beautiful & goosebump inducing.💙🌿

[@CherylHughes-ts9jz]

Love this one ☮️

[@GayJayU26]

That whole set his absolutely brilliant, sexy and intense.

[@pjb3583]

Too bad the man had no charisma. This is the Elvis I love, relaxed and engaged with the audience, belting with passion and at home on stage. Although, I must say, his cheesy movies hold a charm all their own and I will on occasion watch one from beginning to end. Well done, as always. Peace …

[@psidvicious]

Watched Viva Las Vegas the other night. Cheesy, absolutely but that’s part of what makes those old movies fun to watch. Cheesy movies, done with the absolute highest production value available at the time are cool! Ann-Margrett! OMG 🤤

[@localnetsolutions]

Probably the greatest cover artist that ever has been although he did do one original right near the close of his career, one witten specifically for him using the words of MLK's speeches which was truly wonderful.

[@Elvista]

EP sang and recorded over 700 songs.....most were originals written especially for him.

[@gorse9030]

Wow what a scatter gun approach, you take no prisoners. One site has Elvis recording over 300 original songs while If I Can Dream recorded in June 1968 is hardly near the close of his career and passing in August 1977.

[@suspiciousminds1750]

"8.9"? Sheesh. Glad you guys weren't grading my perfect tests in school.

[@samhugh4965]

That’s some fine rockabilly right there. I think this was from his Sun Records days.

[@Jeri_C11]

You both are such fun. So upbeat. Lots of knowledge and will check york other videos

[@pauldark3044]

It's funny how you talk about Elvis like he is the normal performer, he is the biggest superstar to have graced this planet in modern times, just do some research from what other greats said about him, but one thing is right he is the ultimate idol, please react to what now my love 1973

[@michaelknack7970]

So true. Bless your heart!

[@anastasiabeaverhausen2647]

I thought the same thing. 🤷‍♀️
